there is some sort of story here. Cops brother gets involved with David carradine and his suits, and Phillip Tan with his hilarious 'cockernee' accent. We know this cop is good, because he's known as martial law and goes out with Cynthis rothrock, the type of girl who beats up any man with a mullet and moustache. Steve Mnqueens son knows his brother is up to no good, but instead of doing the right thing, he just chases him, tells him to get lost and carries on being martial law. Carradine gets a little suspect of Mcqueens brother, so he tries to get him to kill the annoying African American guy who turns up every now and again for no reason. Carradine kills the brother, Mcqueen gets all serious by his grave, trains at the beach to some hilarious music, and gets employed as Phillip Tans voice coach. a typical straight to video gem, starring some familiar faces from action movies from the early nineties, and for fans of the genre, this won't disappoint. we have the pre credit fight sequence, where the robbers are bad portrayed, one actually looks at the camera. Then as usual, we meet the bad guy, realise how bad he is by watching him prod a sweeping brush handle on someones head causing him to faint and so on. But these sort of films shouldn't be taken seriously, and i for one, just take these films for what they are, pure trashy action films with no punches pulled. they are fun movies, and it's great to discover old gems like this from the past

My teenage self who was watching these types of movies would disagree with me as stern as he could. While I hope he would not be tempted to rate it a 10 out of 10, I know he would indulge in it and rate it higher. And some say I'm being too nice with my ratings. But back to this, which has Cynthia Rothrock and a guy I can't remember seeing in my youth, when I watched hordes of movies like this. He does have a short introduction at the beginning at it is a decent scene overall to be fair. Except that the stunts dated so badly, it hurts watching. Which is incredible if you think about it: you can actually see how the punches are way off target! But of course it was still enough to spawn a sequel, which is also not a bad thing in general

Cheap DVD + Cynthia Rothrock + David Carradine + Chad McQueen as a butt-kicking cop whose nickname is Martial Law = Instant winner. Chad McQueen stars as Sean Thompson, a cop whose martial-arts skills are so good that even his brother Michael calls him Martial Law more often then Sean. Sean teams up with another cop, Billie Blake (Cynthia Rothrock) to beat bad-guys up and stop a gang of car-smugglers and drug-runners under the command of Dalton Rhodes (David Carradine). Sean and Billie are going to need all of their skills to take on Dalton, as he has a nasty habit of killing nearly everyone he meets. Plot? What plot? Just remember the term 'Dim Mak', and you'll know how Rhodes goes about killing people. There are some points where McQueen and Rothrock seem to forget that they are in an action B-movie, as McQueen's character laments that he abandoned his brother to go to Hong Hong, and has nothing to show for it apart from martial-arts championship trophies. Awesome. 'Martial Law' has some nice fight scenes, although none stand out as being anything special. It is entertaining, and all that really matters is we get to see Cynthia Rothrock and Chad McQueen in plenty of butt-kicking action. As far as action B-movies go, 'Martial Law' is nothing special, but is fun to watch - 6/10

Martial Law

A martial art wielding cop gets involved with his wayward brother and also a villainous gang involved with car theft and gun running, helped by his girlfriend who also is a martial art wielding cop. The plot is predictable and our hero who is first seen in disguise as a pizza delivery guy unfortunately seems more credible as a pizza delivery guy than the top martial artist he is supposed to be. No disrespect to the actor meant but Chad McQueen isn't really convincing in his role. Far more convincing in their roles are Cynthia Rothrock as policewoman Billie Blake, David Carradine as the evil Dalton Rhodes and cockney geezer Philip Tan as his assistant Wu Han. They give the film much needed punch. Tan's battle with Rothrock at the end is great. The titanic Professor Toru Tanaka also appears but exits much too soon. There is a sequel with Cynthia but not Chad.

Although her role is actually secondary to Chad McQueen's (who is an OK action lead), Cynthia Rothrock is at her near-best in "Martial Law", both looks-wise and fighting-wise. She even goes 1-on-1 against Benny "The Jet" Urquidez at one point, though her highlight is probably when she delivers 6 or 7 rapid kicks in a row to a guy's head! But the script & direction are perfunctory, the "family drama" stuff is so lame and tiresome that it should have been left out altogether, and David Carradine is a weak, boring villain. If you find yourself watching this movie, my advice is to fast-forward through ALL of the dialogue scenes and focus only on the fight scenes - you won't be missing a thing, and you will be getting the maximum value for your money.

At this point it was clear that Hong Kong movie studios have surpassed the quality of American B movie production studios. This is a movie that features Cynthia Rothrock, but if you compare the quality of the production of this movie to the ones she's starred in in Hong Kong, there's no comparison. There're very little redeeming quality to this movie. Like other bad B movies, the movie is almost entirely constructed out of low importance teaser. The real action doesn't start until the very last minute. The story of this movie is so derivative, and the way it's shot is mediocre to bad. There are many scenes with hard shadows that makes them difficult to see what the subject is. Even with these negatives, if you're a Cynthia Rothrock fan, you'd probably be entertained. This is a real B movie, and a bad one. Best stay away from it.
